“Disarmament Instead of Rearmament”:
The Germany-Wide Day of Action on 5 December 2020 – a Prelude to Further Joint Engagement
With more than 100 events and several thousand participants, the day of action and protest organized by the Abrüsten statt Aufrüsten campaign (Disarm instead of Rearm) was a great success, despite the difficult conditions created by Covid-19.
Peace initiatives all over the country were joined by trade unions and – in a new showing of solidarity— environmental organizations who made this day theirs and, full of ideas and imagination, took to the streets for peace and disarmament while keeping with the nation-wide Corona-related restrictions. Human chains, rallies, vigils, public events, signature campaigns, and information stands characterised the more than 100 actions.
Why is NATO going global?
by Bruce Gagnon is coordinator of the Global Network Against Weapons & Nuclear Power in Space.
29 December 2020
